See doc: It appears that you may have a condition known as sicca syndrome wherein not enough saliva, nasal mucus, and tear are produced. However this condition is not common at your age. Try sucking on sugarless gum or lemon drops to stimulate saliva (Biotene oral products may also be helpful) and using nasal gel or saline spray to keep nose moist. See doc if problem persists.
